Peter and Elise’s October wedding at 50th Parallel Estate Winery was such a joy to photograph. Their connection is effortless and genuine, and as a Kelowna wedding photographer, I love capturing couples who let themselves fully enjoy every moment of their day.

They shared a first look and private vows in the vineyard with their bridal party present. It was such a special way to start their day together.

The ceremony later overlooked the vineyard and Okanagan Lake views, surrounded by family and friends, creating a relaxed and warm atmosphere. The day flowed beautifully thanks to Kayla Knight from DaybyKnight Events, whose thoughtful planning makes every wedding feel seamless.

After the ceremony, Peter and Elise joined their guests for cocktail hour, enjoying time to celebrate and mingle since we captured their portraits ahead of time. Their ease with each other — playful, connected, and completely natural — made for some truly authentic images. Later, the reception was full of warmth, laughter, and heartfelt moments, perfectly reflecting the joy and love that define them as a couple.

Photographing their 50th Parallel Estate Winery wedding was an honour, and a perfect reminder of why I love capturing weddings that feel real, joyful, and full of love.
